HC Deb 18 February 1976 vol 905 cc724-5W
Mr. Cyril Smith

asked the Secretary of State for Trade (1) if he will list those bodies or parties that have been invited to submit evidence to the committee of inquiry into industrial democracy;

(2) if he will publish the guidelines that are being issued to assist those bodies wishing to submit evidence to the committee of inquiry into industrial democracy.

Mr. Clinton Davis

These are both matters for the chairman and members of the committee of inquiry. I understand, however, that the committee has not invited any individual bodies or parties to submit evidence to it and has not published guidelines to assist those bodies wishing to submit evidence. The committee has issued a general invitation calling for evidence, and its terms of reference make clear the matters on which evidence would be welcomed.
